Jewel,
I do not know if this will help your situation, but I had a friend that also
could not delete
certain contacts, and it came up to be because those contacts were linked to
Facebook.
After he went into Settings / Facebook, and unchecked the box that synced his
Facebook friends with
his contacts, then he was able to delete those contacts.
So I would imagine that the contacts that you are not able to delete is from
another app like
Facebook that has been linked to your contacts.
Hope this helps,
Chris
